Elevate your tea experience with thisJianshui Easy Gaiwan, a modern take on the traditional 孔盖碗 (kǒng gài wǎn / “hole-lip gaiwan”). Designed with small holes along the lid’s rim, this gaiwan functions as a built-in strainer, keeping leaves inside while pouring, making your gongfu brewing smoother and more approachable.
Crafted from iron-rich Jianshui clay (江水泥), this gaiwan brings out the best in your teas by softening bitterness and deepening flavor complexity. The clay’s natural porosity encourages the tea to breathe, enhancing aroma, while its superior heat retention ensures even, stable brewing. Over time, the vessel develops a natural seasoning as it absorbs trace tea oils, creating richer and more balanced cups with each use.
The Veil of Ember Clouds Gaiwan showcases a unique handcrafted technique known as “jumping knife,” which creates distinct strip textures across its body. This process enhances both aesthetic appeal and grip, ensuring a stable and comfortable brewing experience. Ideal for precise tea infusion, this gaiwan combines craftsmanship with functionality. Each piece is handcrafted by skilled artisans, with subtle variations in pattern, texture, and form, ensuring that no two are alike.
